Last week waited over 40 min and today over 20 min as well. The food is always great and also very polite lady in the counter but this isn’t acceptable. It’s clearly the slowest Chinese restaurant I have been and I have been to hundreds in this country. If it’s busy don’t tell 1h, tell it will take longer, that is not a problem, standing while waiting is. Also when it is running late the minimum is offering a drink or prawn crackers, this shouldn’t even be said by a customer, owners should know this! I have been a customer for a few months now every Friday, I believe I deserve more!

An excellent takeaway. The only downside is because they are super popular sometimes the wait for food can be a while, but that's a good problem to have. read more An excellent takeaway.
